Haha I'm just not having it! There's accidental drop INS and there's being a dangerous tool. There's a big controversy up north right now where a chic wasn't wearing a leggie and her board flicked off and severed a guys arm nearly clean off. People have no idea how dangerous it can be!!!
I know right, there's the foilers here that catch the big swells and can ride in a lot of conditions even the SUP crew can't do. So cool. People have a go at them but they surf wide and don't get in the way.
I never want to work again... Beach bum sounds like a good post 50 career choice. It suited me when I was young so I am demanding my second grommet phase.

It's hard to believe you're over 50... but I think I've said that already!!
Hahah I know, but I'm still 40 in my head. My body is feeling it though.
Sunshine Coast Noosa had a pretty nasty accident as well end of last year. Pretty huge cut over the head. Looked ugly
It's mental and no one does anything about it. They are begging for a legrope rule here. Can you imagine any other sport being so unregulated?? They don't even have signs explaining surging etiquette on my coast. My girlfriend and I are about to make some and guerilla staple them to the posts on two beaches we surf at. We hope at least they will be a talking point.
It is absolutely crazy. It actually can only get better from here...at least I hope so. They have signs everywhere at the sunshine coast. I think that accident happened because of a drop in but in Noosa I´ve seen people without leash as well. Yes do that, someone has to do it.
I might just staple a few to people's heads, haha just kidding. Some people shouldnt' be allowed near the ocean! Thing is, we were never like the Gold/Sunny coast at all - we were pretty chill and uncrowded down here. That's changed though. I miss the old days. Yeah, I'm one of those surfers now 'it was better in the '90's' he he he
haha don´t worry even I´m like that and I started when it already was crowded compared to your early days of surfing. Anyway, think it is a trend that will calm down again like with everything. Most people give up after a few sessions anyway or are seasonal surfers. Good thing is I can go whenever I want to as I don´t need to go to an office. ;)
